◇Hidden gem

Monasterio de Tarlac

A Benedictine monastery on the slopes of Mount Resurrection, fronted by a 30-foot Christ the King statue visible for kilometers across the Tarlac plain. The grounds are laid out for quiet walking and contemplation, and the panoramic view from the statue's base—flatland dissolving into the distant Cordillera—is one of Central Luzon's great unexpected vistas.
